Paris in Pictures

We arrived at Gare du Nord station


Found a McDo and some freedom fries ;)


Walked over to Montmatre and Sacre Coeur


Stayed near la Tour Eiffel 
{and took a lift to the top!}


Le Metro


Toured the City of Lights at night on bike - amazing!
Best way to see the city


Look them up: Fat Tire Bike Tours


Academie francaise {home of the immortals}



Blurry, but the Eiffel Tower from the Boat Cruise we took. On the hour, la Tour Eiffel sparkles {magical}



Street Art - River Seine


lovely


The Pantheon


Jardins Luxembourg


Saint Sulpice


les cafes, un pain au chocolat, et un eclair


Notre Dame de Paris


We went to the vespers {a sung service... like evensong} on Sunday.
One of the most incredible and moving experiences - to understand so little of the language, but understand so much with the heart.


It's beginning to {feel} a lot like Christmas
Saint Nick!


Departing for jolly ol' England.
